Parent Engagement
Parents are always welcome to visit the classroom, contact the teachers, the director or members of the board with questions, suggestions and ideas. Family participation is encouraged by attending conferences, helping with special projects with the children or for the school, and chaperoning field trips.
In addition, parents in the two's and three's program help through scheduled participation days. Parents also provide a nutritional snack for the children on a rotating schedule. Parents may serve on the board and as room parents. If you have a free day, just hang up your coat and come on in - we'll put you to work!
Board Member: The school is overseen by a volunteer Board of Directors. You can be one of them! There are usually two or three meetings a year. Some positions have specific duties.
Room Parent: You help the teachers by arranging the drivers for field trips and making the arrangements for special events. Think about this for next year or for a future child.
Field Trips: Every parent should help by volunteering to drive the field trips.
Substitute: Sometimes extra hands are needed if one of the regular staff is sick or absent for other reasons. OR help out when special projects are going on.
An Evening of Art @ The Corner: This very social event is the school’s main fundraiser.
Share: If you have a special interest or talent let us know. We love to have parents visit the classrooms or maybe you work somewhere that would make a great field trip!
Visit: At all ages we love to have parents visit. Just hang your coat up and come on in!
Marketing: Parents are out BEST form of advertising. Please let your friends know how much you love the school and invite them to visit with you.
